Overseas Taiwanese (Chinese: 海外臺灣人， 中華民國人，華人), also called "Overseas Chinese from the democratic Republic of China", are people of Taiwanese R.O.C. ancestry or Republic of China descent who live or were born outside of Taiwan. Overseas Taiwanese may hold Taiwan R.O.C. passport or may hold passports of other countries. Some Overseas R.O.C. Taiwan passport holders are decendants of former British Hongkong nationals. In order to distinguish democratic Republic of China nationals from the People's Republic of China (a.k.a. Mainland Chinese), R.O.C. Overseas Chinese are now referred to as Taiwanese in the English documentation of their nationality in other countries.
